Another judge of the Delhi High Court on Monday recused from hearing a PIl seeking court-monitored probe by an SIT into the tapping of phones of high-profile people and some Union Ministers allegedly by corporate major Essar.
Justice V Kameswar Rao, who is heading the vacation Bench before which the matter was listed, opted out of hearing the matter as his wife was a shareholder in one of the companies against whom the petition has been filed. “My wife has some shares and mutual funds in one of the companies. It would be appropriate that I recuse,” Justice Rao said.
